    Nah Ryan,

    If your using a spinning reel.
    Smallest barrel swivel you can find, 1.5m to 2m 4-6lb Flouro leader... Hopefully braid is white or neutral colour, fluro yellow,green or pink is a bit of a giveaway. or at least faded couple of uni-knots either side of leader and rapala knot at the business end to give a natural action.

    You need the barrel swivel to take the rotation off the line that the spinning reel impart - don't bother if a overhead reel is used in casting - just a braid to fluro join knot needed then.

    Rapala knot is important as it gives a loop end for the lure to have a easy natural action but still be attached.

    Do this and watch your catch / hit rate go through the roof.
    Screaming reels boys!!!
